Asked about the rumours linking Barcelona Atlètic wing attacker Jeffren Suárez (21) with a loan move to newly promoted Spanish first division club Tenerife (read more here), Effren Suárez has said in an interview with Tenerife local radio station Radio Club Tenerife that the player prefers to stay at Barcelona's first team:

"He wishes to stay with the Barcelona squad even though he could have few playing minutes.

In case he he has to leave, he prefers to go to a Spanish first division club. Yesterday, I talked with Txiki Begiristain. He told me that they have received offers from three or four clubs but Tenerife wasn't one of them. It would be a nice option though, because it would be like returning home. You should always discuss things first but we're not excluding anything. Two years ago, Tenerife also asked to sign him on loan, but Barcelona rejected the offer back then."
